Today students will have to reuse the programs they create. Thus, make sure your students solve the individual challenges in separate programs so that they have the solutions in store.
There are many loops in the FIRST LEGO League competition. In this video we collect some of them by following the idea of the ELM team.
After you have divided into teams of four, it’s time to choose the robots you will build. The first pair shall construct one of the robots, and the second one – the other. Then, follow the instructions below.
This is the second program for the Watchtower Security Bot. These programs are meant to build on the security features the robot offers, and to return it to its starting condition afterbeing used. You can find the first program for this robot here.
The EV3 Gyro sensor is quite powerful, but there are some little tricks when using it. In the previous episode we showed a hardware solution to the problem and now we are exploring how could the sensor be calibrated from the EV3-G software. Thanks to Sharon and Faye (full names omitted) for the request for this video.
Lintu means bird in finnish.
The robot is made to resemble a Kiwi bird, an endangered species of flightless birds, found only in New Zealand.
Lintu uses two large motors as legs. They are placed at an angle so that they resemble the strange posture of the kiwi bird.
The beak of the robot uses an interesting mechanism to open and close utilizing two technic steering links and a medium motor. For eyes, the robot uses an Ultrasonic sensor.
The program that Nightbeast team use for their second Run in FLL Into Orbit Challange. In this run they еject the 2x4 Brick by placing a Regolith Core Sample into the 3D Printer, make the Crater Crossing mission and scores a meteoroid (shoot a ball).
Instructions for building remote control. It uses the rotation sensor to determine the steering and touch sensor for handling the movement. Find building instructions for a suitable chassis here.
Together the controller and the car look like this:
